138: Satisfactory offerings
Thus, Lin Tianwei spent an entire day oscillating between hunger and drowsiness.
After finishing that truckload of awakened beast meat, Lin Tianwei could only continue to eat ordinary animals.
It was quite a shame.
Both in terms of taste and the energy it could provide, it was a far cry from the awakened beast meat.
Fortunately, delicious food was soon delivered right to his doorstep.
There are no impenetrable walls in this world, after all.
The news of thirteen successful Awakenings in the Pavel family instantly spread throughout his circle.
In a short time, the farm where Lin Tianwei resided became the focus of everyone's attention.
Just the next morning, impatient people, bringing enough awakened beast meat, arrived at Lin Tianwei's territory.
The aroma of high-quality food instantly woke Lin Tianwei from his sleep.
He just waited to quickly enjoy today's feast.
Perhaps it was due to Nobles's prior experience.
This transaction proceeded very smoothly.
Of course, this time the price was much, much higher.
The fish had already taken the bait, and Lin Tianwei wasn't worried about not having anyone to trade with him.
Naturally, he would be as ruthless as possible.
However, these fat sheep themselves had vast fortunes, so they weren't concerned about this bit of awakened beast meat.
Instead, they eagerly agreed and quickly drove their trucks over.
Only this time, they weren't as lucky as Nobles.
After their Awakening was complete, Lin Tianwei didn't give them any time to adapt.
He directly ordered Ouro to lead them out of the warehouse.
As for him, he began to enjoy the delicacies he had extorted from these plump sheep.
An entire truckload of awakened beast meat!
The only pity was that there were no live Awakened Beasts that could allow Lin Tianwei to replenish his dry Talent reserves... After constant back and forth with Denop, Pavel finally obtained the rose, which was suspected to be an Awakened Plant.
Overjoyed, he immediately found Brunos and said, “Brunos, we have the item, let’s depart immediately.”
“You are right; such matters indeed cannot be rushed.”
“Some foolish families, thinking the Tiger King was someone they could easily manipulate, rushed to their deaths.”
“It was merely some ordinary awakened beast meat, yet they spoke of it as if it were some great favor.”
“They were noisy and reckless, unaware of their impending doom.”
“Ultimately, the Tiger King became enraged.”
“No one even saw what happened.”
“Ten ordinary people and five Awakened were instantly killed by the Tiger King's divine might, dying with their eyes wide open.”
Speaking of this, Pavel still felt a lingering fear.
Thinking back to his previous actions.
The thought of foolishly attempting to disturb the Tiger King late at night made him feel as if he had walked a circle on the edge of the gates of hell.
Besides being scared, Pavel looked at Brunos gratefully and said, “Brunos, fortunately, I have you.”
“Now we have obtained this rose, which is suspected to be an Awakened Plant.”
“We will present it as a gift to the Tiger King.”
“We will certainly gain his favor and receive the reward of 100% Awakening of an Esper ability.”
At this point, Pavel even began to fantasize.
He imagined himself gaining immense power and rampaging everywhere.
Brunos also smiled noncommittally.
An Awakened?
An Esper?
Seemingly powerful, these were merely background characters to be instantly killed in front of the Tiger King.
Hoping for an Awakening was less reliable than clinging to this powerful figure before him.
Nobles couldn't help but feel excited when he recalled the outcome of his private contact with Ouro.
“The Tiger King has seen your efforts, and when the time is right, he will bestow his grace upon you.”
Ouro's seemingly empty promise filled Nobles with ecstasy.
He had a mysterious confidence in Lin Tianwei, believing that he would never go back on his word.
Finally, after long preparations, Pavel set off with his subordinates.
They departed for the farm where Lin Tianwei resided.
Bringing ample offerings.
To beg for Lin Tianwei's grace.
A large truckload of awakened beast meat, and even many live creatures.
There was even a very rare Awakened Plant.
Pavel and his group naturally attracted Lin Tianwei's attention.
They arrived unimpeded before Lin Tianwei.
Feeling the immense pressure emanating from the void, Pavel couldn't help but tremble.
Only by facing Lin Tianwei directly and feeling that terrifying aura could one truly understand the terrifying existence they were up against.
Although Lin Tianwei didn't like to show off his combat power like a peacock.
This was something he had to do.
These people would become arrogant if given an inch.
The group that Lin Tianwei had directly annihilated earlier was the best example.
Relying on their own strength and bringing enough items.
They foolishly tried to take advantage and lord over Lin Tianwei.
Death was their best destination.
The only pity was that Lin Tianwei's attack was too powerful.
They died completely without experiencing enough pain, which was a bit regrettable.
The combination of the stick and the carrot is the best way to manipulate people's hearts.
Constantly giving benefits will only make people more and more greedy.
Eventually, they will slide step by step towards an uncontrollable direction.
While Lin Tianwei could easily deal with them, it clearly didn't align with his interests.
With these people helping him find Awakened Beasts as food.
These days, he could eat countless high-quality foods with almost no effort.
This was a hugely profitable business.
This also caused Lin Tianwei's body to grow even larger under the abundant food supply.
His strength became even more terrifying, and even his Tigers Might grew stronger.
Lin Tianwei was always very generous to those who could offer a sufficient price.
Pavel was incredibly fortunate to enjoy Lin Tianwei's luxurious Awakening package this time.
Awakening with a very low probability of developing a Talent is under normal circumstances.
If a sufficient energy supply can be guaranteed, this probability can actually be infinitely increased.
Lin Tianwei did not believe that the owner of the Extraordinary Gene would be an owner who relied on luck to awaken a powerful Talent.
Bathed in white light, Pavel felt his entire body warm and cozy.
It was so warm that he even involuntarily let out a shameful moan.
Then he realized something was wrong and covered his mouth.
It would be a complete loss if he offended Lin Tianwei over such a small matter.
Fortunately, Lin Tianwei didn't say anything, which finally allowed Pavel to relax.
According to Lin Tianwei's command, he soon took the Awakening Fluid.
Perhaps at this moment, his body contained powerful energy, enough to become food for the Extraordinary Gene.
He didn't feel any pain at all.
It was completely different from a normal Awakening.
Three minutes... ten minutes.
By the time the white light was completely withdrawn, Pavel hadn't even reacted.
He mumbled, “The Awakening is over?”
“I didn’t feel anything at all!”
Nobles's face darkened.
What else do you want to feel?
How did he suddenly feel that his boss was a bit idiotic?
To avoid wasting time, Nobles directly carried Pavel and left the warehouse.
Although the Tiger King was incredibly benevolent.
This was not a good place to stay.
Basically, everyone who completed their Awakening was thrown out by Lin Tianwei.
If they didn't leave, they would only be unceremoniously escorted out.
After they had completely left the warehouse area, Nobles finally put Pavel down and said,
“Congratulations, Mr. Pavel, on your very smooth Awakening and becoming a powerful Awakened.”
“Try to communicate with your body.”
“See if you have Awakened an Esper ability.”
“And what kind of Esper ability it is.”
A gust of cold wind and Nobles's words reminded Pavel, and only then did he realize that the Awakening was actually complete!
It only took a dozen minutes, and he didn't even feel a trace of pain.
Comfortable throughout, and the Awakening was complete?
Such an incredible ability greatly shocked Pavel.
However, he also knew that now was not the time to be shocked and began to consider his current situation.
Could it be that he hadn't successfully Awakened, but merely gone for a sun SPA?
Although it was very comfortable, the cost was a bit too high, wasn't it?
However, he had indeed drunk the Awakening Fluid, so there was no possibility of faking it.
It seemed the Tiger King was very satisfied with his offerings.
Therefore, he was given great preferential treatment during this Awakening.
Thinking of this, Pavel began to communicate with his body, wanting to know if he had Awakened an Esper ability.
If he spent such a large sum and didn't Awaken an Esper ability, then he would have suffered a huge loss.
The Esper ability Awakened through the Extraordinary Gene is completely integrated into the target's genes.
This means that as long as the person wishes, he can very naturally use his power.
Clenching his fist tightly, Pavel perceived that his body's strength had indeed increased significantly.
Without a doubt, he had become a high-class Awakened.
Not only that, but the excess fat on his body was directly consumed during the Awakening process.
It transformed into attractive muscles.
He looked as if he had become more than ten years younger.
Pavel looked at his body in disbelief.
Is this what it feels like to be an Awakened?
This is too great!
However, he immediately realized something else.
This was not the reaction an ordinary Awakened should have.
He had seen Awakened before; ordinary Awakened did not receive such treatment at all.
This was, of course, not the treatment an ordinary Awakened received.
Lin Tianwei always adhered to the principle of equivalent exchange.
Since the gift Pavel brought was enough to satisfy him, he was also willing to give the other party some extra benefits.
Otherwise, how would they know that Awakening was divided into different grades?
How would they eagerly bring him more good things?
Without a doubt, this time, Lin Tianwei had once again cast a bait.
His goal was to catch bigger fish.
This was also his main purpose in interacting with humans.
No sooner said than done.
The excited Pavel punched the ground.
The immense power instantly made the ground tremble.
This feeling of having powerful strength filling his body made him incredibly comfortable.
Not only that, but he also felt a powerful force contained within his body.
It only needed a slight guide to be released.
With a thought, the power within Pavel's body was guided and directly erupted.
An invisible force was released from his cells, gradually spreading throughout Pavel's entire body.
His originally somewhat lean body immediately underwent a huge transformation.
Muscles bulged.
He instantly became a muscular tough guy.
Every move he made contained immense power.
Not only that, but the steel-like wall formed by his muscles had astonishing defensive power.
He pulled out the dagger he carried with him.
Pavel gritted his teeth and stabbed himself in the abdomen.
This was not a fatal spot; as long as he was careful, it wouldn't cause too much damage.
Just as Nobles thought Pavel had gone mad and suffered a problem during the Awakening process.
He found that the sharp dagger only cut through Pavel's clothes.
When it came into contact with the taut muscles, it was as if it had encountered the hardest rock.
Not only did it not break Pavel's skin at all, but the tip of the dagger was even deflected by the solid muscle.
Such defense made Nobles gasp.
It is well known that an Awakened's ability is weakest when first Awakened.
It becomes stronger after continuous conditioning and gaining more abilities.
Or after continuous use, it will become even more powerful.
And Pavel's newly Awakened ability could already resist a sharp dagger.
How powerful would the Esper ability he Awakened be?
Thinking of this, Nobles exaggerated without hesitation, saying, "Congratulations, Mr. Pavel."
"It seems you have Awakened a very good and powerful Esper ability this time."
"Although Mr. Pavel doesn't need to fight on the battlefield."
"But such a powerful ability, just its terrifying defensive capability, is invincible."
"This is simply too great!"
Facing Nobles' exaggeration, Pavel also smiled from ear to ear.
Although he hadn't tried it, Pavel felt that his body could even resist some low-powered guns.
Not only that, but most importantly, this Reinforcement was an all-around Reinforcement of the entire body.
Especially that little thing beneath him, which had also become more ferocious and terrifying due to the Reinforcement.
This was simply a man's Gospel.
Pavel wished he could immediately throw a party to test his new abilities.
However, he also knew where his ability came from, and while happy, he became even more reverent towards Lin Tianwei.
One hundred percent painless Awakening of an Esper ability?
And such a powerful Esper ability.
This was simply too great, making Pavel couldn't help but praise, "Nobles, you did very well."
"Although the things I paid this time were many, being able to Awaken such a powerful Esper ability is simply a huge gain for me."
"Fortunately, I had you, otherwise I almost missed such a great Chance."
"It's just a pity that I was still a bit too hasty."
"This time, I only sent one plant suspected to be an Awakened Plant."
"If I had sent a true Awakened Plant, the Tiger King's grace might have been even more terrifying."
After a moment of hesitation, Pavel continued, "Alright, since I have successfully Awakened."
"It seems there shouldn't be any more interaction between us and the Tiger King."
"Let's go back."
"Making good use of our own abilities to grow and strengthen ourselves in this mutated world is what we should be thinking about."
No interaction?
How can that be?
If there's no interaction, how can you give the Tiger King more and better resources?
How can I satisfy the Tiger King and make him see my efforts?
Nobles immediately advised, "Mr. Pavel, you are being narrow-minded, very narrow-minded."
"Think about it, we have completed our Awakening, but so many people in the family have not yet Awakened."
"How can this matter be considered complete without them all?"
Pavel said somewhat surprised, "What's the use of letting those useless people Awaken?"
"As long as I control enough elite power, I can thrive."
Nobles shook his head and said, "If you think that way, you are greatly mistaken."
"Is there any family that would dislike having too many Awakened?"
"Only by having countless Awakened can we do well in this world."
"And even if the entire family has completed their Awakening, we still cannot distance ourselves from the Tiger King."
"We must frequently send some gifts to maintain our relationship."
"One hundred percent Awakening ability?"
"In my opinion, this is just the tip of the iceberg of the Tiger King's strength."
"The truly formidable one is he himself."
"Befriending him is definitely a win-win situation for our family."
"As long as we can persuade the Tiger King to act."
"Competitors?"
"Enemies?"
"The Tiger King can easily deal with all of these for us."
"And those forces that covet us and try to destroy our family will definitely be wary of the Tiger King's existence."
"They wouldn't dare to act against us."
At this point, Nobles said firmly, "I think we should completely tie ourselves to the Tiger King's chariot."
"This is the wisest choice!"
Nobles' words seemed to lack much reason.
But they were chilling upon deeper thought.
Making Pavel feel that this idea was the most correct choice.
Not only did the family need more Awakened.
But also his attitude towards Lin Tianwei.
Such immense power, such a thick thigh, he must hold onto it tightly.
Thinking of this, Pavel said as if enlightened, "Nobles, what you said makes a lot of sense."
"Fortunately, I had you, otherwise I almost went astray again."
"The future will only become more difficult to understand, requiring even greater power."
"To be complacent with a little power?"
"That will be the beginning of digging one's own grave."
"In this mutated world, we must constantly become stronger, always stronger."
"Only then is it possible for the family to stand tall forever."
"We can even use our cooperation with the Tiger King to recruit some elite Talents."
"With their join in."
"My family will flourish even more."
"No one is not afraid of death, no one dislikes a stronger, more powerful body."
"I myself am the best example!"
Thinking of this, a raging fire ignited in Pavel's eyes.
He felt.
Under Lin Tianwei's guidance, the future is promising! —
On the other side.
In the warehouse.
Lin Tianwei suppressed his hunger and began to examine the unique rose in front of him!
